4-Term Pathway - Pre-Master's for Law and Social Sciences - Continue to Master of Arts - Art, Aesthetics and Cultural Institutions

This exciting interdisciplinary master's programme at University of Liverpool combines philosophical aesthetics, art theory and hands-on experience in galleries and museums, thereby bringing together both theoretical and practical interests. It is specifically designed to equip students with the competence to pursue either a doctorate programme in the Arts and Humanities, or a professional career in the cultural sector. The programme is structured around four compulsory core modules: Main Topics in the theory of art, in which members of staff lead weekly seminars on their own current research; Cultural Institutions, which takes places at a range of collaborating cultural institutions around the city, including the University’s Victoria Gallery and Museum; Research, Employability, and Professional Skills and placement, supported by the careers and employability service and Liverpool's cultural partners, and a supervised dissertation or case study over the summer.
